Windjammer for Jeep CJ5
Wind Deflector with Clear Window – Easy Roll Bar Installation (1980-1983).
Why a Windjammer Makes Sense When Driving Open with a Soft Top or Bikini Top.
A windjammer – also called a wind deflector – mounts to the roll bar behind the front seats and reduces wind turbulence and drafts when the Jeep CJ5 is driven without a full soft top, or with just a bikini top installed. It also helps keep cold air and rain out of the cabin and retains warmth inside, making open-air driving more comfortable even in cooler weather. The textured vinyl becomes brittle over time from UV exposure and moisture, and the mounting rails and buckles on the roll bar can loosen or wear out. Since installation requires drilling holes for the Z-channel mounting rails, a full replacement is usually the better choice once wear becomes significant rather than repairing individual parts.

American engineering that proves itself when driving open: textured, tear-resistant vinyl with a precise Z-channel mounting system. Bestop has set the standard for wind deflectors and soft top solutions for decades.
